Ravish

Sad to see this place closed. I loved their Mac and cheese and bread pudding. Was thinking about going over there tonight :(

We really liked Ravish! Especially great if you’re not in a rush and just looking to spend time with someone. I wouldn’t recommend for parties much larger than four, and thought it was actually quite perfect for just two. The service was nice, but not speedy by any means, so just get ready to relax. The food was very tasty — our favorite was the sweet potato latkes — seriously, we were thinking about them for days after. Some fun drink choices too! Nice atmosphere and I like to spend time in this neighborhood, so we’ll be back!

This is an old review I forgot to post, but their pigs in blankets are freaking amazing. I hate hotdogs, but couldn’t stop eating these. Go here, eat.

Shared Sunday brunch with my Aunt and used a Chinook coupon. I had to drive past the place twice as the sign was not obvious. I was glad that we made a reservation for noon as after being seated there was a bit of a wait for others, while some chose the bar area.
I am a fan as the food was AWESOME. There was a back-​log wait but it was worth it. The service was attentive and kind. They were out of the mushroom risotto so we ordered the sweet potato latkes and the corn beef hash, both of which tasted like someone really thought about the quality and presentation. Don’t let the small white dish fool you, it is packed and dense. We were both quite satisfied! One star off only due to no risotto and wait for food.

Went there for Valentine’s Day. Service was very friendly. Food was inconsistent in quality. On average across all courses it was just OK for the price. The kitchen had problems keeping up with the volume which might have resulted in quality dropping course by course. Bothe appetizers were great. One of the first courses was great the other one was below par. Main courses were ok and so were the deserts.
They also need to invest in better vents in the kitchen. The whole place was getting pretty smoky within one hour of opening. Glad we went there at 5pm.

No reservations needed for Sunday brunch today.
I came here on a whim and took note of the 50s/​60s music. Customer service is awesome.
We ordered:
1) rosemary truffle popcorn for $ 5, which is $ 2 more than the Sunday happy hour brunch that starts from 230 to 5. It was fresh and delish!
2) baked brie for $ 12. $ 10 during happy hour. Which came with a generous amount of caramel, hazelnuts and baked brie wrapped in a puff pastry dough alongside a large rosemary cracker and fresh bread as well as a side of sliced apple. I couldn’t stop eating it especially the caramel sauce with hazelnuts! So good!
3) wild mushroom egg Benedict, sauteed greens which seemed like spinach and kale with a side of bacon. The waitress gave us a huge fresh buttermilk biscuit instead of a small one. The Parmesan risotto cake on the bottom with the greens and mixed with the poached eggs on top with truffle oil totally made my day! It was so creamy and gooey and not too salty.
A definite must for any Sunday brunch!

Perfect brunch experience. Great service, ambiance, music, food, and drink! I had the Wild Mushroom Benedict and Gin and Juice (and sage) drink. The apple coffee cake was a nice surprise «table bread» starter. Added the truffle Rosemary popcorn and couldn’t keep my hand outta the bowl! Two hangry ladies adding the Brie appetizer was overkill, but we did it anyway.
From the tomato, grey, and lime Glassy Baby candles to the black on chandelier décor, I felt comfortable and welcome in this open space with huge windows onto Eastlake.
The Benny was more than I expected and may be my new favorite in town! The fresh sautéed garden greens (kale and spinach) were a nice addition to the porcini, Portabella, oyster shrooms, risotto, and homemade buttermilk biscuit — not too dry and crumbly, not too mushy, just righhhtt!
Can’t wait to come back here again! Wish they offered brunch on Saturdays!

Really 4.5 stars…
What an amazing dinner! Made reservations here for my partner and I via Unilocal for 8 on a Friday. Was glad we were seated in the cozy corner; the main seating area was a little loud.
For drinks, I had the Lions Mane which was a drink special and my partner had the Will-​Bear. Both were amazing.
We shared a few items. The prawn cocktail was so good. Very fresh, and I think I’d eat that house-​made cocktail sauce on anything. So good. The dish came with some fresh radishes with some herby seasoning and olive oil and lemon zest.
Next was the It’s A Date — bacon-​wrapped dates with goat cheese and balsamic reduction. Perfect.
Then the pork and black bean taquitos which were really good. The middle was a tad soggy but probably just due to the sauce they put on top. We also shared the chicken, which came out last. The crunchy skin and soft juicy inside were just amazing. Some of the best chicken I’ve had out.
We were crazy and also got dessert. I had the apricot sorbet and my partner had the buttermilk vanilla, which as our server mentioned was a little more like yogurt. Both were great and bursting with flavor. Also served with these cute wintery ginger merengue cookies.
Why 4.5? Eh. It was coming toward the end of the night. And they were busy wrapping things up. Too busy to bring us the bill. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like being rushed, but it was a tad too long and after one-​too-​many eye contacts that we finally got it.
Otherwise a perfect night. We’ll be back.

I’m from out of town and found this place a mile away from my hotel on Unilocal.Parking was a little hard to find especially for someone who doesn’t know their way around. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. The food is absolutely amazing. We the carrot-​ginger soup, kale Caesar, roasted veggies and quinoa. The quinoa was by far the best and I would definitely recommend it. This place is super tasty and I’d definitely come back the next time I’m in Seattle.

Stopped into Ravish Sunday evening on a friend’s recommendation and so, so glad that I did. First things first, the atmosphere was great — bright, yet warm, with a simple but well stocked bar. The service was also worth mentioning. Our server was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable.
But the food… and the drinks. My friend had recommended the prickly pear cocktail, and after trying it, I refused to switch to anything else. It was so different — spicy, tart, and a little sweet. I highly recommend it. We ordered a couple of small plates between us — the bacon wrapped dates, the baked brie, and the Mac and Cheese. The first two were phenomenal, a mouth watering mix of sweet and savory, every bite was bursting with so many different flavors. I might go back and get another serving today. The Mac and Cheese wasn’t my style, I couldn’t pinpoint what it was, just wasn’t my favorite. All around you guys, try this place. And try it as soon as possible.

My wife and I came here for weekend brunch. Now, we love brunch, and while we have our favorite places to go, we cannot resist trying new brunch places. Ravish did not disappoint! We had heard that it was a pretty popular place, so we made an Open Table reservation, however, there was plenty of seating when we got there just after 11am.
The place is small-​ish with some outside seating. The atmosphere is comfy and edgy at the same time. The staff was super friendly.
Whenever we go to brunch, my wife’s mission in life is to try the french toast. One of the reasons we came in the first place was because Ravish has Peach French Toast on the menu. She gave me a bite of her meal and it was absolutely delicious. The peaches aren’t really baked into the toast like you would expect, it seems as though they line the bottom of a pan with peached, then cook the toast on top. It creates a layer of peach and toast like layer cake. So good.
I had the biscuits and gravy. Don’t be fooled by the size of this meal. It comes on a small plate and just looks like 2 biscuits and 2 eggs, but its a beast. The biscuits are thick and flaky and the gravy is just full of sausage. Break your egg yolks over the top of that and you have something pretty amazing.
They also have a pretty great hot sauce that I’d never had before. Its called Valentina. Add it to your eggs for an extra little kick. Its not super hot, but it does have a nice dark chili flavor.

Ravish was just what the doctor ordered. Cool ambiance, great food and creative, reasonably priced/​locally inspired drinks!
I had a 22ounce boundary IPA and my friend started the night with an «off white» a somewhat ticklish foo foo drink that was actually quite good. Refreshing and unique, not too too sweet.
To start off we had «it’s just a date,» a small platter of bacon wrapped dates married with little pieces of goat cheese. Not a filler upper but just enough taste and substance to justify the 8 dollars and the wetting of your palette for something more substantive.
Enter the 25 minute pancetta Mac n cheese… worth every minute of anticipation. It was amazing and probably slightly underpriced given the filling was and presentation. A must order if you have time…
Finally the grilled artichoke – very good as well, came dusted with some seasoning and spices that although foreign to me, were delicious.
Great meal, great drinks… service was slightly slow but we were on a slow pace and what they lacked in speed the service team made up for in personality.
I will be back!

*Wow, great dinner, the cassoulet was incredible and a great value bottle of Malbec made it all happy
*Great service, friendly and helpful
*They nail it, and their bfasts are all world, great neighborhood place, ask for a Hot Charlotte, it will rock your world

Awesome cocktails! I ordered the prickly pair and it was exactly what I wanted. It had a spicy and refreshing feeling at the same time. We ordered an appetizer, the artisan cheese trio, and it was really good! The bread was fresh and yummy. I want to come back for dinner. The waitress was amazing too.

I absolutely LOVE brunch at Ravish… it may be my favorite in Seattle.
The atmosphere is quaint and cozy, and everyone I bring mentions that. The service is great and you sometimes get a surprise freebie, like homemade banana bread or a free mimosa.
My fav dish is the biscuits and gravy with a hard scrambled egg on top. I’ve been here numerous times and have loved everything I’ve had, which is a pretty bold statement.
I once coordinated a brunch for about 30 girls and they were so pleasant work with. I highly recommend!

Really delicious and fresh food here. Came with a girlfriend to have the quinoa salad, mac and cheese, baked Brie, and crunchy kale. We ordered the most stiff drinks here, service was great and place was packed considering the small area.
Make sure to come in for happy hour, we missed out.

I went here with some friends for drinks this week and it was great! They’ve got a good happy hour and extremely tasty food, including:
— pigs in a blanket (fantastic)
— baked brie (GREAT)
— mac and cheese (soooooooo good)
— steak skewers (delish)
So basically, everything I ate was delish and I would definitely return! The happy hour wine, a grenache, was very tasty as well. The only negative thing about this place is the parking — there is none! You have to street park which is difficult in this area.

Food was great. Bree was nice and sliders were great as well. The resturant is pretty small but decorated with modern taste, and I enjoyed the dinner.
The only problem I had was with Ravish was the service. We (Group of four friends) came here for late wednesday dinner to celebrate a birthday. Ravish wasn’t full, and it wasn’t like we were taking up the table when people were waitig. Around the time we were almost done with dinner, as a surprise, one of our friends brought in a small boxed cake from her car. Even with a little candle lit up on tbe top of the cake. It was tiny bit bigger than a cupcake, but the server came up to us and insisted to pay $ 4/​person to have cake in ther restaurant. We politely asked if we could order couple more desserts from them and have a bite of this cake along with their desserts, but they were very strict about their rules on cake– sounded almost angry.
Maybe its just me, but i’ve never been to. A restaurant more strict about small birthday treats afterward, especially when we had A LOT of foods (drinks + about 7dishes).
Food was great, but not amazing enough for me to come back after the unpleasant experience. There are plently of good restaurants with more friendly policies about cakes around the area (ex. Joule)

Cute little spot on Eastlake across from the Eastlake Bar & Grill.
Sitting at the bar is a friendly and fun experience. My friend and I met up here because I had an expired Bloomspot deal to use for the remaining $ 25.
The restaurant isn’t very big, it probably sits around 20 – 30 max? But anyway, we shared a bunch of plates: pigs in a blanket, baked brie (my favorite!), bbq pulled pork sliders, and the pancetta 3 cheese mac & cheese.
The pigs in a blanket were very tasty and the pork sliders were flavorful and really filled us up. I thought the mac & cheese was just OK actually… the main highlight for me was the baked brie and my cocktail, the garden gimlet.
The baked brie was a combination of sweet and savory, which was so delectable. The puff pastry was cooked to perfection: flaky and buttery. I love apples and caramel and this dish had both! I’m usually not a huge fan of brie, but this dish simply cannot be missed. This was the most memorable dish for me and I highly recommend it!

Reservations recommended.
And there’s a reason why… Ravish is a small restaurant with amazing food. I came here with 3 friends to discover that it was going to be a 45 min wait. Luckily, the host was nice enough to offer to text our party when a table was ready so we can grab drinks at Eastlake Bar & Grill.
The food here is designed for people to share and taste. We wanted to order everything off the menu but instead just ordered a few dishes. Good thing we did because we were satisfied with everything we ordered: My party and I had the following:
Baked Brie
Brie wrapped in puff pastry, salted caramel, sliced apples, pecans, served with crackers & fresh breads. This was a nice appetizer to start with and it was not too sweet or salty. Just right.
Chicken Wings (chalkboard special)
I don’t remember all the ingredients involved but I remember there was maple syrup and fennel. Anyways, the meat fell off the wings easily and the flavor was good.
Pancetta 3 Cheese Mac & Cheese
rosemary cheddar, Parmesan, & blue cheese, crispy breadcrumbs, truffle oil drizzle
Our waiter told us that a bowl wouldn’t be enough for 4 people to split but I’m glad we stuck with one because this was on the rich side.
Roast beef panini (chalkboard special)
Its too bad this was a special because this was everyone’s favorite. The meat was tasty and I liked the bread.
They do have a happy hour, which I will definitely check out next time.
